In this article, we will learn about the various mechanical properties of materials. Knowing about them is very important to identify any material. It is the mechanical properties which provide the correct information about where the materials can be used. They are the measure of strength and how long the material can exist in its

What is Stress? Whenever an external force is applied on a body then a resisting force is induced in the body. This resisting force acting per unit area of the body is called stress. Under equilibrium condition this resisting force is equal to the applied load. So the stress is also defined as the ratio

In order to understand the subject mechanics of solids (or strength of materials) , first we must know the meaning of strength of materials. When an external force is applied on the body in the form of push or pull, the body tends to undergo some deformation. But due the existence of cohesive forces between
